That sounds - aside from the off-putting note - not bad.

The question remains: What does gold smell like? 😉

Somehow, I just can't really vibe with cedar anymore...

Too sweet is usually bothersome too :-)

Just a little reminder, since it's easy to lose track: You even rated it just a 6...

Too bad about the off note; otherwise, it sounds intriguing.

Gold in the pyramid is always charming; here the gold smells of: lemony-fresh cedarwood, resins, beeswax, spices, and a bit of leather. At the beginning and in the base, I notice an unpleasant off-note, slightly musty (maybe from saffron, leather, labdanum). There's also a hint of animalic in the base. In the middle part, I don't have the off-note, but it's too sweet there. Good ideas, but not for me. Thanks to Spatzl!
